How Often Should My Reptile See the Vet?

We recommend that your reptile receives a health check at least every 6 months, sooner if you notice any changes in behaviour, energy levels, thirst, appetite and defecation. New health issues can develop quickly in exotic pets, so any changes should be treated as a potential sign of illness. During a general health check consultation, we will assess things like body condition, mouth/teeth, skin, eyes and more.

Read What Reptile Parents Are Saying About Us:

The team here are very professional, they cared for one of my very sick snakes (Oreo) and got her back to full health fast, the staff were kind, friendly and very knowledgeable. Dr Emma and all the nurses managed to work Oreo's treatment around my hectic schedule and gave me updates and photos that made my day when she was hospitalized. The facilities are clean and welcoming and it's clear that everyone here genuinely loves all animals and treats them with respect and care. I'll be bringing all my pets here for check-ups in the future.

Caring, informative and the best vet I’ve been to so far for my little beardie . You can tell the staff are passionate about what they do and they won’t overcharge you, always transparent and explaining the costs. Appreciate all that they do! Cheers guys x

A wonderful team! Showed so much love and care to Ada (Python) when she was unwell. And had so much patience with me while I asked a million worried questions! Ada and I are very grateful to have found you

Absolutely amazing with our boy Qibli (Bearded Dragon). I was expecting an exotic vet to cost an arm and a leg but their prices are beyond reasonable for the specialty care they provide. I would like them to any vet prices in Sydney. More importantly.. is the service! The service was phenomenal..we haven't had Qibli for long.. a couple of months now... But we are besotted with him and lapped up all the advice the team gave us..they were generous with their time and expertise. We didn't know he had an abundance of parasites but are so thankful for the diagnosis and treatment to help Qibli thrive! Thanks so much!

I highly recommend the team at Wild Vet, they have been amazing. My geriatric bearded dragon, Nectar, required multiple dental procedures to treat a tricky Tooth root abscess (because I was naughty and fed him too many blue berries!). I was overseas for his initial procedure, and they kept me posted throughout his recovery. It was a costly exercise, but well and truly worth it as his received the utmost health care. I couldn’t have been happier with their service, facilities, and knowledge of exotic pets.

Lovely nurses and a calm and friendly atmosphere. Dr Emma is reassuring and calm, which helps when you have a sick pet.
